The Mode in Footwear: A Historical Survey with 53 Plates

What shoes were the height of fashion in Paris at the turn of the century? What did Tutankhamen's burial sandals look like? The answers lie in this illustrated compendium covering centuries of footwear, from Egyptian sandals, to Chinese silk wedges used for binding feet, to American saddle oxfords. Turner's work remains the definitive work on the subject. Reprint of the Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, 1948 edition.
